Fire Hazard

No washer can completely remove oil.

Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of oil on it (including cooking oils).

Items containing foam, rubber, or plastic must be dried on a clothesline or by using an Air Cycle.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire.

This booklet covers several different models. Your dryer may not have all of the cycles and features described.

Before using your dryer, wipe the dryer drum with a damp cloth to remove dust from storing and shipping.

1.Load clothes loosely into the dryer and close the door. Do not pack the dryer. Allow space for clothes to tumble freely.

2.Turn the Cycle Selector Control to the recommended cycle for the type of load being dried. Use the Normal Dry cycle, called out by an asterisk (*) to dry most heavy to medium weight fabrics.

3.Set the Temperature control, to the recommended setting for the type of fabric being dried. See "Dryer Cycle Descriptions" (separate sheet) for temperature suggestions.

4.(OPTIONAL) Your dryer may have a WRINKLE GUARD c,_ feature selector. When you are unable to remove a load from the dryer as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. This feature periodically tumbles, rearranges and fluffs the load without heat to help avoid wrinkling.

5o (OPTIONAL) If you want the dryer to sound a signal when the cycle is finished, set the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL control to ON, or to the volume level you prefer (on some models). The signal is helpful when you are drying permanent press, synthetics and other items that should be removed from the dryer as soon as it stops.

6.If desired, add a fabric softener sheet. Use only ones labeled as dryer safe. Follow package instructions.

7.Press the PUSH TO START button.

Stopping and Restarting

You can stop your dryer anytime during a cycle.

To stop your dryer

NOTE: The Cycle Selector Control should point to an Off area when the dryer is not in use.

To restart your dryer

1.Close the door.

2.Select a new cycle and temperature (if desired).

3.Press PUSH TO START.

Use the dryer rack to dry items such as sweaters and pillows without tumbling. The drum turns, but the rack does not move.

If your model does not have a dryer rack, you may be able to purchase one. To find out whether your model allows dryer rack usage and to obtain ordering information, please refer to the back page of this manual or contact the dealer from whom you purchased your dryer.

NOTE: You must remove dryer rack for normal tumbling. Do not use automatic cycles with the dryer rack.
